Summer nights and hazy days
What I wouldn't do to have them again
But they're heavy on my shoulders
And sometimes I get tired

It’s getting pretty late
Shall we go inside?
And I know it's time to let go
But I just don't know what to do with the weight of it all

I just don't know what to do with the weight
And I still think back to
When I’d reenact the
Stories that my mother read to me

Then I'd fall asleep in the back room
Sun through the window
Where did the years go?
And I know it’s time to move on

But I just don't know where the weight of it all belongs
I just don't know what to do with the weight
Oh and time is a curse you can't outrun
So I burned every bridge I crossed

And my heart is a hearse for everyone
Oh and everything that I’ve ever lost
And I didn't deserve to come undone at twenty-one
And never quite stitch myself whole

God knows I'm too young to feel this old
The ground is gaping below me and I
So badly don't want to fall

I'm just so tired of carrying the weight of it all
How do I bear all the loss of what was before?
I wonder how long I'll be under the weight
